Railway applications - Method for determining the equivalent conicity

The wheel-rail interface is fundamental to explain the dynamic running behaviour of a railway vehicle. It must therefore be understood and among the parameters by which it is characterised, the one called "equivalent conicity" plays an essential role since it allows the satisfactory appreciation of the wheel-rail contact on tangent track and on large-radius curves.
As the term equivalent conicity is used in a number of standards documents, including UIC leaflets, ISO standards and European standard, it is necessary to have an unambiguous way of determining it.
The purpose of this leaflet is to propose a method for determining equivalent conicity which can be applied in the context of standards documents.
This leaflet does not define limits for the equivalent conicity and gives no tolerances for the shape of the railhead and the wheel profile to get acceptable results of the conicity.

Bahnanwendungen - Methode zur Bestimmung der äquivalenten Konizität

Die Kontaktgeometrie zwischen Rad und Schiene ist von grundlegender Bedeutung für das dynamische Fahrverhalten eines Schienenfahrzeugs. Dabei ist der Parameter der „äquivalenten Konizität“ von besonderer Bedeutung bei der Beschreibung der Kontaktgeometrie im geraden Gleis und in Gleisbögen mit großen Halbmessern.
Zur Bestimmung der äquivalenten Konizität ist ein eindeutiges Verfahren erforderlich, welches sowohl in Europäischen und nationalen Normen als auch anderen Dokumenten (rechtlicher und technischer Natur) verwendet wird. Um zu erreichen, dass die Ergebnisse vergleichbar sind, wird in dieser Norm eine Vergleichsrechnung festgelegt. Diese Europäische Norm beinhaltet außerdem einen Vorschlag für ein mögliches Berechnungsverfahren, welches jedoch nicht ausdrücklich empfohlen wird.
Dieses Verfahren beinhaltet Referenzprofile, Profilkombinationen, Toleranzen und Referenzergebnisse mit Toleranzgrenzen und ermöglicht so die Beurteilung der Zulässigkeit eines Mess- und Berechnungssystems, unter Berücksichtigung von Zufalls- und Gitterfehlern des Meßsystems.
Es legt keinen Grenzwert für die äquivalente Konizität fest und gibt keine Toleranzen für das Schienenkopfprofil und das Radprofil an, um akzeptable Konizitätswerte zu erhalten.
Für andere Anwendungszwecke kann es nützlich oder erforderlich sein, weitergehende Verfahren zu verwenden, z. B. durch die Berücksichtigung einer elastischen Kontaktfläche oder des Wankwinkels des Radsatzes in Folge seiner Querverschiebung. Diese Verfahren liegen außerhalb des Anwendungsbereiches dieser Europäischen Norm.

Applications ferroviaires - Méthode de détermination de la conicité équivalente

Pour expliquer le comportement dynamique de marche d'un véhicule ferroviaire, l'interface roue-rail tient un rôle fondamental. Aussi sa connaissance est nécessaire et, parmi les parametres permettant de la caractériser, celui dénommé "conicité équivalente" joue un rôle essentiel puisqu'il permet d'appréhender au mieux le contact roue-rail en alignement et dans les courbes de grand rayon.
Il est nécessaire d'avoir un mode opératoire de détermination précis pour la conicité équivalente qui est utilisée dans des normes européennes et nationales et dans des documents (juridiques et techniques). Les résultats doivent etre cohérents. Pour y parvenir, un calcul de comparaison est défini. La présente norme propose également une méthode de calcul possible qui n'est pas explicitement recommandée.
Ce mode opératoire contient des profils de référence, des combinaisons de profils, des tolérances et des résultats de référence avec des limites de tolérance et permet d'évaluer l'acceptabilité d'un systeme de mesure et de calcul, y compris les erreurs aléatoires et les erreurs de grille du systeme de mesure.
Le présent document ne définit pas de limite pour la conicité équivalente et ne donne aucune tolérance sur la forme du champignon de rail ni sur le profil de roue pour obtenir des résultats acceptables sur la conicité.
Pour d'autres besoins, il peut s'avérer utile ou nécessaire d'utiliser des théories plus sophistiquées, par exemple, en incluant des zones de contact élastiques ou l'angle de roulis de l'essieu du au déplacement transversal. Ces méthodes n'entrent pas dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme.
